Abstract

An intuitive understanding of the concept of general systems is drawn. Based on this understanding, a law of conservation is guessed. To further confirm our guesswork, some aspects of quantum physics, astronomy, meteorology, multi‐body systems, chemistry, etc. are looked into with new understandings drawn. Then, an analytical presentation of the so‐called law of conservation of informational infrastructure is given. At the end, various promising impacts of the proposed law of conservation are considered.
